"put!"
Following He Shihui's shout, thirty-one people, including He Shihui, released their fingers at the same time.
Thirty-one arrows roared and shot away.
The sun sets.
The rushing bandits could only see little bits of cold light shining like stars under the setting sun, looming in the setting sun, which was particularly dazzling.
In the blink of an eye, there was a series of screams and wails from the bandits rushing from the opposite side.
"Whoosh!"
"Pfft!"
He Shihui's heavy arrow shot out with great force, and a dodging sword and shield wielder in the first row of bandits was sent tumbling away, with the shield and long knife in his hand flipping over in the air.
The arrow was stuck in his throat, causing him to roll on the ground and struggle in pain.
He covered his neck and kicked his feet hard.
He couldn't breathe. Although he opened his mouth wide, trying to suck in a breath of air, the end result was that he could only blush and be suffocated to death.
Like He Shihui, Sun Dashan's heavy arrow also hit the neck of an infantry bandit swordsman and shieldman.
The bandit covered his body with a shield, but his arrows were at a tricky angle. They penetrated through a rare gap and hit the bandit's throat directly.
Then the bandit was hit by an arrow and rolled to the ground, kicking and struggling like the thief in front of him.
The sharp arrows whizzed and flew, each piercing the body of a thief. The sharp arrows penetrated from the chest and came out from the back. The cold arrowheads were dripping with blood.
In this round of volleys, as many as twenty-five of the bandits who were charging down from the opposite side fell, including eight sword and shield wielders.
Obstructed by the fallen bandits in the front row, their attack speed was actually slower.
He Shihui didn't hesitate at all and shouted loudly: "Shoot quickly, shoot quickly..."
With a command, a row of arrows flew, and the rows of arrows were like Yama demanding lives, harvesting the fresh lives of the bandits on the opposite side.
The sound of the bow strings tightening came one after another, the whistling of arrows seemed to be fierce and continuous, and the bandits fell one by one screaming.
When the sergeants hold the bow in their left hand, they also hold an arrow. The right hand can only use it for a moment. After shooting an arrow, the right hand reaches forward slightly, retrieves an arrow, and places it directly on the bow. , when the bow is fully drawn, the arrow will naturally shoot out, and the arrow will be shot again, and the cycle begins again and again.
As rows of arrows flew rapidly, the bandits running dozens of steps away were harvested row by row, and fell to the ground continuously, with wailing sounds resounding.
With a snap of his fingers, an arrow shot out. At the same moment, two hundred and forty-eight arrows flew away from the string.
The bandits who rushed in were in chaos. The three rows in front of them were all empty. Only a few tough bandits with shields were left in the first row. Even in the fourth row, nearly half of them were hit by arrows and fell to the ground.
More than thirty steps in front of the car formation, the situation was horrific. Bandits were rolling around and wailing and crying. Many people wanted to retreat. Under the threat of bows and arrows in front, these dozens of steps seemed to be a restricted area for death.
The large number of casualties that appeared in an instant shocked the bandits who rushed towards them. Their faces were full of horror, and they stayed in place, stupidly looking at their companions who were lying on the ground, rolling and wailing.
Even the archers behind them, who were holding bows and arrows and preparing to throw to assist, were so shocked by this tragic scene that they even forgot to throw.
Panicked, the backbone of the bandits was severely damaged, and this wave of attacking infantry bandits would collapse in the blink of an eye!
Several bandits had a nervous breakdown, turned around and ran away, shouting as they ran.
…………
The bandit leader wearing a strange green cloak was also looking at this side with his mouth open. It must be the first time for him to witness the rapid fire power of the elites of the Ming Dynasty. His side was about to collapse before he even got thirty steps closer?
Suddenly, the green-cloaked bandit leader Hu Dazhai roared angrily, took a bow in his hand, galloped forward on his horse, drew his bow and nocked an arrow, and pulled the bow with a creaking sound.
There was a "whoosh" sound.
The arrows whistled fiercely.
A bandit who was shouting in terror and just turned around and tried to run back was shot through the neck, and then rolled to the ground and struggled desperately, covering his neck with his hands and unable to breathe.
"Anyone who dares to retreat will die!"
The green-robed Hu village leader roared angrily.
He ordered the infantry bandits in front to press forward again, and the old bandits inside the formation slashed and killed a few more people who turned around and fled.
For a time, the bandits' position was stabilized again, and no more bandits dared to escape.
All the archers among the bandits also moved closer to cover the shooting. As the bowstrings sounded, rows of arrows were thrown into the air.
He didn't believe it. He couldn't take down a bunch of refugees and his army of a thousand people, including nearly a hundred elite cavalry.
Even if there are really powerful people among the refugees opposite, they have horses, and they will not have time to run away when the time comes.
Anyway, it is now frozen, and more than half of the backbone of the bandits has been broken. This matter cannot be ignored for so long. If he cannot win the opposite refugee team today, his reputation among the mountain bandits in this area will be ruined.
The infantry bandits roared like beasts again, and under the pressure of the old bandits, they started charging again with various weapons held high.
The green-robed Hu village leader also led the horse bandits behind him and began to trot forward, all with their bows and arrows drawn.
Suddenly, two small gaps opened in the oncoming traffic formation.
…………
He Shihui finished his rapid fire, and he immediately shouted loudly: "Mount your horse, attack, the cavalry will attack!"
Thirty sergeants ran backwards from the passages on both sides. Bai Shanzi had already led ten knights on their horses to supervise the battle. After hearing He Shihui's military order, they immediately ordered Qing Zhuang, who was responsible for guarding the horses, to bring the horses over.
Sun Dashan led the sergeants to rush back, each got on his horse. They quickly divided into two teams. Each sergeant held either a three-eyed blunderbuss or a long sword, axe, and mace. Under the leadership of Bai Shanzi and Sun Dashan, they The horse rushed towards the two removed cracks.
Bai Shanzi was still holding He Shihui's horse. When the horse ran close to him, He Shihui took the reins and pulled it, then he used the strength to turn over and jump onto the horse. He took off the three-eyed musket from the winning hook, howled wildly, and marched forward. Rush away.
At the same time, the sound of bowstrings vibrating came, the sound of arrows whizzing, and pieces of light arrows flying by. They flew through the air, making a piercing sound, and gathered into one, just like a breeze blowing over the sky. Beautiful birch forest.
Nearly a hundred arrows flew out rapidly, passing over the heads of He Shihui and the others, and landed behind the car array.
With a 56-power bow, the projectile range can easily reach 150 steps, and the muzzle speed of a light arrow is 70 to 80 meters per second. It does feel like it is only an instant to leap over 100 steps.
The sound of "tuk-tuk" continued, and the arrows whizzed over. Some fell into the open space of the official road, some fell on the carts, and many fell on the heads of everyone behind the car array.
There were bursts of exclamations and screams, and then the roar of Ma Huijun came.
It is obvious that many brave people and young men here have been hit by arrows. They have no armor or shields. They only hold up spears and sticks and wave them in the air to block the falling arrows.
However, many people were still hit by arrows, and the team was panicked for a while. Fortunately, Minyong did not break up after this period of training. Coupled with the roaring and cursing of the Jockey Club Army, although the formation of the young men was in chaos, There was no collapse.
However, fortunately, these light arrows were thrown far away, and when they fell, they were not very powerful, and the injuries were not serious, but the power of their flying shots was very scary.
The deterrent caused to people's hearts is far greater than the harm caused to people's bodies.
…………
Among the first row of incoming infantry bandits, there were still nine old backbones holding shields. They were shocked by the brutality just now.
However, under the pressure of the cavalry behind them, three rows of infantrymen and two rows of archers rearranged themselves and charged forward. They also reacted, but after just two steps, they saw the car formation on the opposite side split into two small lines. Through the gap, dozens of knights galloped out of the gap.
He Shihui rode his horse to the front, reaching the distance of thirty steps in the blink of an eye.
Just as the arrows thrown by the bandits flew over their heads, the three-eyed gun in He Shihui's hand also fired. With a "bang", the bullets flew out of the smoke from the gun's mouth.
An infantry bandit who had just reacted rushed towards him with a shield and a knife, but was hit in the head by a bullet from close range. Half of his head was blown open, blood mixed with brains flew away, and the man fell to the ground with a "pop" sound. on the ground.
For a moment, the sound of "Bang...Bang...Bang..." was heard endlessly. The remaining gangsters in the front row, and the three-eyed blunderbuss fired in the hands of the knights who were rushed out, kept harvesting lives.
The bandits suffered heavy casualties in the previous rapid shooting. Nearly 200 of the advancing infantry bandits were injured and fell to the ground, which dealt a huge blow to the remaining bandits. They had already collapsed, but they were intimidated by the bandit cavalry behind them. He turned around and charged again.
At this moment, as soon as He Shihui's cavalry came out, the three-eyed gun exploded with bursts of sound, which was more like the last straw that broke the camel's back. Coupled with the strong sense of oppression brought by the charge of the cavalry, the remaining infantry bandits Complete collapse.
They howled loudly, turned around and ran wildly, like lost dogs. They rushed into the array of archers behind them, and the two rows of archers were scattered by them.
"Whoosh...whoosh...whoosh..."
The knight on the horse shot out spear after spear. At such a close distance, the spear almost hit the target. It penetrated into the back of the fleeing bandits and penetrated through the chest. Their lifeless bodies were also shot. Driven by the powerful force of the throwing spear, he continued to run forward for a few steps before falling to the ground.
Liu Xiong, the bandit leader of Taishan, rode his horse and brandished a long knife, and chopped down three fugitives one after another. However, he was unable to stop the bandits from dispersing. Seeing that the bandits were running away without their lives, he and the others who were pressing behind him The old bandit stayed behind.
Liu Xiong looked at the cavalry rushing towards him, all of them in neat armor, with their bright red cloaks flying, and there was a trace of panic in his heart.
Suddenly, a tough bandit wearing armor and a red felt hat shouted: "Fuck, it's the border army."
After he finished speaking, he ran sideways, but instead of running backwards, he ran diagonally to the rear. Within a few steps, he ran down the official road and ran all the way north without looking back.
These people were all deserters from various places, and most of them had seen large-scale battles. They had already realized that the situation was not good from the rapid shooting just now, and began to think about it and make their own small calculations.
At this time, when the cavalry rushed out, there were bursts of explosions of three-eyed guns. Looking at the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, except for the elite cavalry in the border towns, there were so many cavalrymen using three-eyed guns.
Although they are usually tough and brutal, they know their own strengths best. They can show off their power against ordinary bandits or guards from various places, but they will not fight tooth and nail against the Jingjing Cavalry from above, and of course they cannot fight. .
With the first one, there will definitely be a second one. In one moment, seven or eight tough bandits rushed down the official road.
